EXPLORATION IS ENCOURAGED
With its dinosaur bones, insect zoo, Hope Diamond, and more, the Natural History Museum is the most visited museum in Washington DC. The main building has an overall area of 1.5 million square feet with
325,000 square feet of exhibition and public space.
Talk about a Napoleon complex. Prepare yourself, the building sounds extremely intimidating and is even more so once you walk through the doors. Just know that you could never see everything all in one day. From the museums map, pick out the top ten things you have to see and focus on accomplishing those.
If you get lost, dont worry. One of the 1,000+ employees at the museum will be sure to help you find your way.

DINE IN STYLE
Finally, your day is coming to a close and its time to once again enjoy some great American food. A stones throw away from the White House is the Districts oldest and most historic saloon, the Old Ebbitt Grill. The restaurant is known for its extensive beer selection, fresh seafood, and authentic flavors as well as a one-of-a-kind oyster bar. If you are a fan of crab, the crab cakes should not be missed. Finish your day feeling 100% American by getting the Apple pie with vanilla ice cream. Word to the wise, you might as well order two slices from the get-go. Yumm-o.

SEA-AIR OPERATIONS
You dont enter this gallery; you come aboard. The shrill whistle of a bosuns call sounds as you cross onto the quarterdeck of the mythical aircraft carrier USS Smithsonian. Inside is a scaled-down re-creation of a hangar deck bay. The surrounding structures and equipment are from an actual aircraft carrier.
